据一家总部位于美国、专注于中东的媒体监督机构分析,主流媒体在伊朗冲突的前三周内使用“战争罪”一词近30次,但其中88%的使用都指向美国或以色列。

CAMERA(中东报道与分析准确性委员会)及其研究主管大卫·利特曼周三发布的研究显示,英国广播公司(BBC)、美国有线电视新闻网(CNN)、全国广播公司新闻(NBC News)、《纽约时报》和《华盛顿邮报》共使用了32次“战争罪”这一术语。

在他的评论中,利特曼要求读者思考“战争罪”一词在冲突报道中的应用情况,指出简单的网络搜索显示该术语“几乎完全”针对美国和以色列。

利特曼在CAMERA的网站上写道:“CAMERA发现,在战争的前三周(2月28日至3月21日),‘战争罪’一词共被使用了32次。其中28次(88%)仅针对美国和/或以色列的行动。”

“针对伊朗伊斯兰共和国的行动,这一术语的使用次数为零。另有4次(12%)未明确归因或同时指向双方。”

CAMERA发现,几乎所有相关引用都源于冲突初期据称摧毁伊朗米纳布一所学校的空袭。据CAMERA称,五角大楼仍在调查这一事件。

利特曼写道:“其他一些指控涉及在印度洋沉没的伊朗军舰,这无疑可被归类为合法攻击。”

该分析还将这一术语的使用情况与CAMERA调查结果中未被标记为“战争罪”的事件进行了对比。

该组织援引伊朗发射的集束炸弹,其中许多落在以色列及其他地区的人口密集区。

分析发现,主流媒体来源中,‘战争罪’一词未被用于这些袭击,如果提到伊朗的战争罪行,也总是与对西方的同等批评并列。

分析发现,“虽然集束弹药并非普遍被禁止,但将其用于瞄准人口密集地区几乎肯定构成战争罪。”

CAMERA还指出,伊朗的袭击击中了科威特和巴林等未正式参与冲突的国家的能源和其他关键设施。

分析发现,在被审查的主流媒体来源中,“战争罪”一词未被应用于这些袭击。如果提到伊朗的战争罪行,也总是与对西方的同等批评并列。

利特曼写道:“这种新闻报道失误颠倒了事实。”

乔治·梅森大学法学教授亚当·莫索夫评论了这一分析,他在X平台上写道:“数据分析证实,BBC、CNN、NBC和《纽约时报》存在明显偏向伊朗伊斯兰政权的偏见。”

“这些媒体机构在美以伊战争的前三周内,在新闻报道中使用‘战争罪’一词32次。没有任何一次仅针对伊朗伊斯兰政权的罪行,且88%的媒体引用仅指向美国或以色列。

“伊朗政权使用集束炸弹袭击以色列平民,向多个未参与战争的阿拉伯国家的民用目标发射导弹和自杀式无人机,向耶路撒冷老城的圣地发射导弹,但西方主要媒体组织没有将这些行为单独认定为战争罪。这是可耻的。”

Watchdog blasts BBC, CNN, NYT for applying ‘war crime’ label almost exclusively to US, Israel in Iran conflict

Mainstream media outlets reportedly used the phrase “war crime” nearly three dozen times in the first three weeks of the Iran conflict, but 88% of that usage was directed toward the U.S. or Israel, according to an analysis released by a U.S.-based, Mideast-focused media watchdog.

CAMERA, the Committee for Accuracy in Middle East Reporting and Analysis, and its research manager, David Litman, released a study Wednesday counting 32 uses of the term “war crime” from the BBC, CNN, NBC News, The New York Times and The Washington Post.

In his review, Litman asked readers to consider how the term “war crime” has been applied in reporting on the conflict, noting that simple internet searches return usages “almost exclusively” against the U.S. and Israel.

“CAMERA found 32 total applications of the phrase ‘war crime’ during the first three weeks of the war (Feb. 28-Mar. 21). Of those, 28 (88 percent) were directed solely toward the actions of the United States and/or Israel,” Litman wrote on CAMERA’s website.

“Zero were directed solely toward the actions of the Islamic Republic of Iran. Four (12 percent) were unattributed or directed at both sides.”

CAMERA found nearly all references stemmed from an airstrike early in the conflict that allegedly destroyed a school in Minab, Iran. The Pentagon is continuing to investigate the incident, according to CAMERA.

“Several of the other allegations refer to the sinking of an Iranian warship in the Indian Ocean in what can assuredly be classified as a lawful attack,” Litman wrote.

The analysis also contrasted that usage with events that have not been labeled “war crimes” in CAMERA’s findings.

The group cited cluster bombs fired by Iran, many of which hit populated areas in Israel and elsewhere.

“While cluster munitions are not universally banned, using them to target populated areas almost certainly constitutes a war crime,” the analysis found.

CAMERA also pointed to Iranian strikes that hit energy and other key installations in nations not officially engaged in the conflict, such as Kuwait and Bahrain.

The analysis found that, among the mainstream media sources examined, the term “war crime” was not applied to these strikes, and if Iran was cited in a war crimes discussion, it was paired with equal criticism of the West.

“This journalistic malpractice inverts reality,” Litman wrote.

George Mason law professor Adam Mossoff commented on the analysis, writing on X that “data analytics confirm huge bias in favor of pro-Islamic regime of Iran by BBC, CNN, NBC and NY Times.”

“These media orgs used ‘war crime’ 32 times in news reports in the first 3 weeks of the U.S./Israel-Iran war. Zero references solely to crimes by Islamic regime, and 88% media uses referred solely to U.S. or Israel.

“Islamic regime uses cluster bombs against Israeli civilians, shoots missiles and suicide drones at civilian targets in numerous Arab countries not involved in war, fires missiles at holy sites in Old Jerusalem, but zero identification of these war crimes as standalone crimes by major Western media organizations. This is shameful.”

Fox News Digital reached out to communications officials at CNN, the BBC, The Washington Post, The New York Times and NBC News for comment but did not hear back by deadline.
